Join us this summer! Here on the shores of Sylvan Lake at Camp Woods, we know how to do the true camp experience.

For nearly 100 years, Scouts have been coming to Camp Woods to further their outdoor skills and leadership, kick off wonderful friendships and become lifelong outdoor enthusiasts. Now, through our new overnight summer camps we are thrilled to give non-Scouts and Scouts alike the chance to experience Camp Woods!

﻿Does your Scout group have eager youth aged 12 -17 that want to experience adventures in another region Canada? Looking for a cost-effective opportunity for adventure between Canadian Jamborees?

Then consider partnering your group with the YMCA Youth Exchanges Canada Program!

Andrea Clarke, YMCA Regional Coordinator for the Prairies/NWT will be offering an engaging, informative session on how Scout Groups can enrich their Scout programming and youth retention by participating in a youth group exchange. Youth can connect with other Scout Groups/Organizations, explore citizenship/service project opportunities, and share-in on the wonders of the Canadian experience!
